Dax thanks Gage for his vulnerability, tells him he's talented and likable, and notes that being public about both his sexuality and his BPD diagnosis requires unusual courage. Gage thanks them and notes Armchair Expert is one of only three podcasts he listens to. After Gage departs, Dax announces this is a summer-break rerun of a favourite fact check.

Robby Hoffman is the 7th of 10 children raised in a Hasidic household in Montreal, where the family was poor and comedy was a survival mechanism.
